Exceeded expectations. Hotel was very clean. I watched the attendant clean a room, and she is very thorough. Everything is kept neat, inside and out. Continental breakfast was decent with lots of options. Only ding is only 1 ice machine, located on the 2nd floor. Overall, I'd come back!

I think it's a good place to sleep. Bed is very comfortable. You can tell the place is getting older. The bathroom is clean enough. Minus one point for the stain in the toilet bowl. But overall, it was comfy and pleasant enough for us. We were just there for work, out for all day and just come back to sleep

Major gripe with the property was the shower heads were not locked in. This resulted in them spraying everywhere and having to be used in handheld mode. (Note: this was in a handicap room)
